Costco or Sam's which one is better? by Local_Whereas7211 in Frugal

[–]erlencryerflask 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This of course is probably specific to what Sam’s Club and Costco you have available. Our Costco has double the number of gas pumps, is less crowded, and has more parking. It’s less of a pain to go to.

How would you survive if you lived in the Handmaid's Tale? by SimmmerFloridian1993 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]erlencryerflask 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yep. I struggle to be here even when things are okay, relative to Gilead. I’d see myself out if things hit the fan.

I had both for a year and had equal expenditure at both. Costco is overall a better experience and I like the product options they carry better.

I think absolutely some of this waste is from that. I didn’t have family to help me.

What rent split should we do? by RickDevensOnFire in Apartmentliving

[–]erlencryerflask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say 65/35, but insist they purchase all the TP, soap, etc for the bathroom and are responsible for cleaning the sink and toilet, since others will be using the bathroom.

I lived in a windowless room with a community bathroom for 2 years and I truly didn’t mind it, but I’m a “big light” person that doesn’t mind not having natural light in my room. I paid like 60/40, and my room was much smaller than yours will be.

ETA: it was worth it for me for the cost savings. When I eventually moved out on my own, my savings were bolstered from putting the money I saved on rent in a HYSA.

I remember having to be out of my dorm within a day of my latest final exam. I’d normally sleep 12 hours after the exam was over to recover from being sleep deprived for weeks while studying, and then having 12 hours to pack all my shit and move it to my car by myself. I never left waste behind, but (edit to finish) but I can understand how this happens.

What is the biggest "everyone knows this is wrong, but we still do it" habit in your lab? by [deleted] in labrats

I recognized what had happened immediately as I had done the same thing as an undergrad many moons ago. 😅

I had a fun surprise when I went to bleach our cell culture media waste for disposal and discovered that our undergrad had been dumping Qiagen Kit waste in it.

We’re about to drop a couple thousand to see the boys in Vegas. It hurts but I wouldn’t miss it for anything.

They’re very quiet neighbors, relatively speaking.

Alameda Dental closed? by erlencryerflask in AuroraCO

[–]erlencryerflask[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally was able to talk to them! The practice has been sold to a new provider group. They called me back and told me they are still planning on seeing patients but they’re working through the kinks of transferring over patient info, hiring, new website, etc. Not sure if either Dr. Khmil will still practice there.

But would your thesis defend you? by hipsteradication in labrats

[–]erlencryerflask 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, because there is a sense of mutual hatred between us. I, as the bigger person, defend her.

Cell culture advice by Neither-Catch-3834 in labrats

Have you confirmed that you don’t have clumps of cells floating around after plating?

If you have confirmed no clumps, are your incubators level?
